Brain no work🧠❌️, Anyone else have this problem

Hi hi. I have trouble just thinking, having trouble now typing, like my mind is generally blank if I'm not actively doing something. I never know what to talk about even with my friends and partner at times. I have things I want to do but I either don't think to do those things or there's so much i feel I need to do that I'm paralyzed by it and just sitting there seething in frustration with myself that I can't get up and do those things, even simpler things like taking a bath.


I know part of its depression, part is anxiety, alot of executive dysfunction and indecisiveness, not sure if ADHD but definitely a struggle. Im in therapy and just started some new meds that have helped some. been able to do dishes, laundry, and cook a little.


I wonder if anyone else has issues like this, this major brain lag?

@SmollOne hi sweetie ❤ so those new meds are helping? You feeling ok of them now?

I think most of what your describing here is mostly due to depression🙁  even the things that used to come naturally to us, gets so much harder with depression🙁 just know your doing your best ❤ hugs you tightly ❤❤

@SmollOne I'm glad your feeling better with the new meds ❤❤ it is frustrating I know🙁 it can make us quite angry at ourselves in times🙁 several months ago I lost the feeling in my upper left body (I'm already paralysed from the waist down) but I've only been able to move my right arm and head. It was sooooo frustrating. I know that is more physical than mental. But it sucks I know how frustrating it can all be. One day at a time ok? ❤❤

@SmollOne Yes mate! i can feel you completely. I also feel difficulty in doing everyday tasks like taking bath, sleeping on time and waking up on time. And getting overwhelmed by seeing so many things on platter. may be we have unrealistic expectations from ourselves and we are getting paralyzed by it, that every simpler things are seeming difficult.

Glad to lnow Im not alone, though i hate you have to strugle woth this too. Possibly, I just want to be able to keep my house clean and do art but maybe that's too much for my brain right now, on top of working, shopping, cooking, taking time for myself, juggling time with partner, my 3 friends, and family. It's just an overload 😵‍💫

You're not alone. I feel the same way almost all the time. It's really draining.
